Living in JB 3 (Johore)

if you are free, go there and take a look. you will notice on the opp side of the road has a sewage treatment plant.
Infront of the project is a row of shop houses and its located next to a highway.
The sales agent told me basic furniture and fittings included. If you really want to buy, buy the units facing east and ignore the west.

why you want msian PR? I can't think of any advantage to be msian PR.

no need to be PR to buy property, no need to be PR to get EPF(if you work here), no need to be PR to get cheap medical(if you visit goverment hospital)...etc
heck even the proposed minimum wage cover foreign labour.

I thought people basically want PR in a country in order to live and work freely in the country? I think Sg govt has issued s pass and all kinds of employment too freely that foreigners have it too easy to live and work in SG and forgot SPR is a privilege and not an entitlement or profiteering tool to buy property aka HDB, get CPF and cheap medical. Btw no need PR to buy private property in SG too.

Maybe we must go to Sabah to buy house to support UMNO there, got chance to get MY Citizenship ?

What is this Sabah thing about? Someone told me foreigners cannot buy landed house in Sabah, is it true?

I understand even West Malaysian needs to apply to buy and also a passport to get into Sabah and Sarawak,...presumably that was one of the deals agreed when both states joined Malaysia.

Hi guys, can I ask a qn? If I were to buy a Malaysian car an commute to Singapore daily, how much levy must I pay? I am considering doing this on a long term but am not sure if it's worth it...Anyone who's currently doing this can share their experience? thanks

If you are a Spore PR or Singapore citizens, you are not allowed to drive your JB car into Spore at all. Its an offence.

Many pass holders are driving JB cars into Spore to work Monday to Friday nowadays .. so much that it has caught the attention of the media. From S$20 a day levy, I know the LTA may increase to $50 per day entry to peg it against the high COE and road usage cost. Last time it was S$20 cos COE is just $5000.

Let's hope not. The last time Malaysia "took it" now with the EDL issue, might escalate to a "you do I do"....... Great for the respective govt..... BAD for those of us that have to commute. Salaries don't keep pace with ALL these "revenue generating" schemes. Punish the offenders, make examples of a few and the rest will "toe" the line. Sounds harsh, but what about those who obey the rules!! Do they deserve to get "collectively" penalize by those SELFISH few???

Thank you for your reply. Did you book the unit? Anybody?

The agent kept on calling me. Very aggressive. :(

If very aggressive at this point of time.. Better check the corners.

You can try the car wash shops in Nusa Bestari, RM10 only if i remember correctly.

 

[FHBH12]

Bukit Indah side opposite Tesco: Jalan Indah 16/6 and 16/4 junction has a corner shop providing very good washing and interior cleaning for RM10. Got air-con room for you and complimentary pack water to drink to relax while waiting for your car to be cleaned. The guys are friendly and it is very popular with Singaporeans. Map is below.

If you decide to wash car on your way out to Singapore via 1st link, try the one at Jalan Storey after the traffic lights (2nd carwash outlet). Small car 10rm, big car 12RM (including cleaning interior/boot/front interior). They are quite good. Boss is young Indian guy, very nice and friendly. 1st shift - Malaysian workers, 2nd shift foreign workers. Have only tried the second shift, they are good.

I usually wash my car at Legend car wash @B.Point after shell staion at 1st Link. They charge RM8 for wash plus vacuum. Waiting room is aircondition with Tv and wifi. All their customers are sg plate. Oh and they have a loyalty program, 1 free wash after several washes. Must let them sign on their rewards card after every wash.
